Features Artist Candy Cahn
Musician Don Cahn

The Pember Library and Museum in Granville, NY is pleased to present local artist Candy Cahn for April First Friday at the Pember. Candy loves wildlife and her art echoes her passion. “I come from a long line of artists,” she reflected. “My mother painted landscapes in oil, but I like to work with other subjects and media. Animals are my favorite – especially horses.”

The show will include Candy’s charcoal portraits of horses, vibrant watercolors of wild animals, and stitched nature panels. Candy has exhibited at the Poultney Library and was recently awarded two prizes for her animal portraits at the Washington County Fair.

It’s not often that we have a husband and wife team appearing at First Friday, but we do for April, so you just can’t miss this one. Guitarist, singer and songwriter Don Cahn will be performing. Be there…

And be sure to check the specials of the many Main Street businesses that will be staying open late for First Friday.

First Friday is April 7, from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. Admission is free.

The Pember Library in Granville will host part four of the four-part reading, viewing and discussion series for adults called Pushing the Limits. Pushing the Limits brings together books and video featuring authors, scientists and everyday people who thrive on exploring the natural world.

All programs are held at the Pember Library. For details please see our website http://pember.sals.edu/ or contact Ardyce Bresett, 518-642-2525, or email pember.library@gmail.com. Light snacks with coffee or water will be provided.

Dylan O’Leary will lead a discussion of When the Killing’s Done, by T. C. Boyle on Sunday, April 9 at 1:00 PM, including a video of the author interview and human interest stories. Through this program you and your community will consider how we humans constantly push the limits of nature – that might mean the world around us or it may mean our own human nature. You’ll consider together “what is natural?” and “is there such a thing as pushing nature too far?”

This national program has been developed by a team of library professionals, scientists, and filmmakers. Their organizations include Dartmouth College, the Association for Rural and Small Libraries, the Califa Group (a California-based library consortium), Dawson Media Group, and Oregon State University– with generous funding from the National Science Foundation.

To obtain copies of program materials, please contact the Pember Library located at 33 West Main Street in Granville, NY.
